premiered by Nicholas Lippold and Nathaniel Yang’s Big Band on March 16, 2025

Finishing off the trilogy of “Cookin’” and “Fine Dining,” “Check, Please” as a title only made sense to come next in line. This chart is a samba written for my dear friends, Nicholas Lippold and Nathaniel Yang, and their big band. A big thank you to my big band director, Prof. Albert Alva for guiding me on the arrangement side of this tune.
